Samples were analyzed for water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, specific conductivity, turbidity, Ammonia-Nitrogen (NH3 +), Nitrate/Nitrite-Nitrogen (NO3 -/NO2 -), Total Phosphorus (TP), blue green algae-phycocyanin, and Chlorophyll-a. All water quality samples collected for analysis of Phosphorous and Nitrogen were collected from the upper two (2) meters of the lake using a depth integrated water sampler. Other parameters were measured using an In-Situ Aqua Troll 600 multiparameter sonde.

Water Quality Report: August 2024
Water quality samples were collected from Lake Glenville at seven (7) locations on August 1 and August 7, 2024. Five of the locations are in coves near the outlet of major streams within the watershed: Mill Creek, Hurricane Creek, Norton Creek, Glenville Creek, and Pine Creek. These creeks are also routinely sampled for a suite of water quality parameters, increasing the knowledge and understanding of the specific issues of the watershed, such as identifying potential sources of pollutants which may be degrading water quality.
